  • My apple TV is having trouble setting date and time

    While fast forwarding a purchased movie, ATV froze.  Then it wouldn't play any movies.  Unplugged it, restarted it, tried to reset the settings, and it keeps getting hung up on date and time.  Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    It is having trouble connecting to the network. Make sure location is set correctly, DNS should be on automatic (settings - general - network). If on wifi try Ethernet. Make sure router is up to date. Reboot ATV and router

  • HT1551 trouble setting date and time

    my power went out at home. when it came back on, appletv turns on, is connected to home wireless internet BUT can't access shows because the automatic "date and time" will not reset. FRUSTRATING. This occurred once before and I was able to correct it by hitting "restart" under settings. this "fix" isn't working this time.

  • Cant set date and time

    having trouble setting date and time.

    I was able to get my Apple TV working again by downgrading the firmware following the instructions in this message:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/20008613#20008613
    In case that message disappears, here's my translation:
    1. Connect your Apple TV to your computer via USB. Don't plug in the power cable.
    2. Download the older 5.0.2 firmware from Apple here:
    5.0.2 (Apple TV 2): AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    5.0.2 (Apple TV 3): AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    3. Open iTunes and select the Apple TV. Hold down the option key and press the restore button at the same time.
    4. In the dialog that opens select the firmware that you downloaded.
    5. The restore process will take a few minutes. Once it's done plug your Apple TV back into your TV. If the date and time message persists just press the menu button to skip it. This got mine working again.
    Good luck !!!

    having problem with the apple tv, because it still setting date and time and dont finish w the activation

    That means it is having trouble connecting to the network. Make sure location is set correctly. Go to settings - general - network and ensure DNS is set to automatic. Check that your router is up to date. If on wifi try Ethernet.

    I am having trouble setting up my time capsule.  the amber light is flashing.  i have a Verizon FIOS network that i use for the internet (WiFi) and do not want to configure the Time Capsule to do that function.  I just want the Time Capsule to back up.

    Simple.. bridge the TC.. in the apple utility in the NAT and DHCP area.
    Plug it into the FIOS router.. you can turn off wireless in the TC if you want.. or use it.. it can work faster if you are nearby and can select 5ghz.. but up to you.

  • My AppleTV cannot set date and time. I've reset it, but after 3 hours, it is still trying

    My AppleTV used to work fine. Someone messed with my Time Capsule, so I had to have it worked on. Since it was messed up, the AppleTV can't function. I reset it and updated everything. It said "Activating" and "setting date and time". After 3 hours, it is still trying to set the date and time. Now what do I do? Thanks for any help.

    As I previously wrote in a former post:
    I will first assume you are still setting up your new Apple TV. Is this is the case, use a website like canyouseeme.com to check if port 123 is open. If it is not, this is your issue of your Apple TV not being able to connect to the timeserver. Try contacting your Internet Service Provider for help with opening this port.
    Otherwise, try hard resetting your Apple TV by disconnecting all power for 30 seconds. If the problem still persists, you may try hard resetting your router by also unplugging all power for 30 seconds.
    Hope this worked out well for you. If you are having further troubles you can always connect it to iTunes using a micro-usb and restore it. Lastly, the Genius Bar will be more than happy to fix the problem for you if you'd like to make a reservation for your local Apple Store.

  • HT3180 Can't set date and time on apple tv

  • HT1551 Initial set up setting date and time just spins and spins..

    Can't seem to get past the set up time and date on my Apple TV...it just spins and spins

    Go to the Setting menu> General > Set Date&Time . It should display AUTO. Click on set Date and Time change it to MANUal and adjust the time accordingly.
    As for the apple id that should be a different issue, my ATV frequenlty thinks it's in California's time zone and I have no trouble login in and out.  Try going to the Apple ID site ifto  you can't login there, you may have the wrong password.
    Apple ID:https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/

  • HT1595 My apple tv stuck at setting date and time. Also when connecting yo network doesn't ask for network password

    My apple tv stuck at setting date and time. Also when connecting yo network doesn't ask for network password

    I just went through this last night. (Aug 15, 2013)
    What I did to get back up and running. This is not the first time I have lost the network connection with my Apple TV 3
    Products effected: Apple TV 3 and Home Sharing (My Apple TV 1 was not effected)
    Power down (unplug) the Apple TV and power down your router ( in my case, it is a FIOS router, flipping the on/off works fine).
    Power both items back up.
    At this point, I usually can reenter my Apple ID and PW. and reconnect Home Sharing.  But for some reason I was unable to reconnect last night but was able to get it reconnected in the morning. I was jut to tired to deal with it last night.
    A new issue that is was able to fix after a good nights sleep.
    I did figure out, (after trying to reenter my ID and PW many times and having it tell me that my ID and PW was wrong), that when using the Apple TV on screen keypad to type in the user ID. DO NOT use the ".com" keypad button. Instead type out each character for .com. ( or what ever ending you use for your ID account.)
    Once I typed out my full ID and PW. everything is back to 100%

  • Iit is setting date and time but keeps going in circle . but never sets up

    Try to use apple tv. But when turn it on. It is setting Date and time? But the cursur is just going around and around and nothing happen for a while. It doesnt set the time or date, so can watch apple tv.?why?

    I have had this frustrating problem twice.  Combinations of resets, restores, restarts of routers etc have been generally unsuccessful.
    My Apple TV2 has full internet connectivity (through a internet cable, connected to a D-Link gigabit switch, connected to a Generation 4 Apple Time Capsule, connected to a high speed Comcast ARRIS modem).
    The Apple TV2 works well with AirPlay, Youtube, HD movie trailers, HomeSharing music and photos, etc, but won't connect to NetFlix, allow movie rental, or allow iTunes purchased home computer programs to display due to not being conneted to an iTunes account.
    And I can't connect to the iTunes store because the "time and date cannot be set".
    Note that my iMac is connected to the same gigabit switch as my Apple TV2 and it can automatically set time and date, just fine.  I tested by turning off the auto set, setting the wrong time, then turning it back on and having the system time and date properly reset... twice!
    This time, my problem was solved by going into the Time Capsule, changine IPv6 setting from HOST to "Local Link".  The Apple TV2 immediately knew the time and was able to connect to the iTunes store.
    I recall that last time I "fixed" this problem, I changed that same setting from Local-Link to Host.
    I agree with lagoed, Apple should fix this vexing problem, the sooner the better.

    external to backup having trouble setting up and getting started

    Okay, first you will need to setup time machine to backup your system to the new hard drive.  Just open time machine and turn it on, then select your new hard drive and time machine will start the backup in a few minutes.
